Feature Requests

It would be very convenient to have the ability to have subfolders. I use folders for classifying projects. For example, Projects would be a Folder name. 2019 Projects would be a Subfolder name.

Having moved from other Project Management tools where List (Projects) IDs could be customised to iterate and have a custom prefix, the ability to do this would be incredibly useful.

I absolutely love the new task relationship feature...it currently allows me to select tasks from a different list, but I would love to be able to also select tasks from the SAME list!

Hi Guys, I'd like to request that you add a "comments" column option in Portfolios. This would provide the great "latest update" capability that's useful in Asana's Project lists. We don't have status in Lists yet granted, but with some manipulate of color, you can create a workaround to have each List's color kind of "represent" a Status. We have the capability in List view now, so this would be simply transferring this to Portfolios, and using the Comments field in Lists. Thanks guys!

It would be great if we could set logos or icons for our folders so that we can visually distinguish them within moments.

It would be great to be able to add Sections to Lists. This could also be thought of as grouping certain tasks within lists. Sometimes you want tasks to be in one list, but also be able to group them/put them in to sections, so you can better chunk them. For example, I make films, and I would like a list for a film to be able to be grouped in to "Development", "Pre-Production", "Production", "Post Production", "Release". It isn't suitable in this instance for me to make each film have its own project and then make individual lists, because I group film types as projects. For instance, I have a Project "Short Films", then each short film is a list. It would not work having a Project for each film, as the project list would be huge. This is something that can be done in Asana, and is very useful.

From support ticket: Can you reopen a sprint once it is marked done?

I think that grouping is one of ClickUp's most powerful functionalities, as it can bring a ton of perspective and narrow focus on what's important. A major functionality I've been missing, is the ability to group by dates in list / board view, in a meaningful way. Currently, grouping by due dates is quite powerful - when used for future tasks. Content management is the main reason we use ClickUp, therefore managing thousands of past articles and videos. It would be extremely efficient if we could adopt the current due dates grouping, for start dates as well (we use start dates in place of "publishing date", since the start date field offers more reporting & filtering functionalities overall than custom date fields sadly). So I think this is the best way it could work: Have all date fields available in the group by section -> Start Date, Due Date, Custom Date Field Offer the option to choose the grouping period -> Weekly (could show as W52, W51, W50 etc.), Monthly (Dec 2020, Nov 2020 etc.) and Yearly (2020, 2019 etc.) Offer the option to group periods either in an ascending, or descending manner. I believe this will open the possibility for even more hyper-useful list & board views, that can not only be applied in content management, but any kind of workflow or database.

When grouped by Due Date in list view, please provide additional level of grouping for Future dates by month and then by years. Currently level of grouping shows up: Today Tomorrow Saturday Sunday Monday Future Would like to see this changed to indicate: Today Tomorrow Saturday Sunday Monday January February March April May June July August September October November _ December 2021 2022 2023 etc
